Cranky seemed to make a reference to this game! Is this possible? I’ll see if I can find the exact text.

It was something along the lines of I’m going to go over and practice this here killer instinct. Or something like that. It’s potentially way off though.

I think Cranky references Killer Instinct twice: Once when he complains that it must be rubbish for not having him in it, and another time when you leave his cabin.

That’s right! The one I noticed is where he said he wasn’t in it! Another fun fact: Dave Wise originally composed Funky’s Fugue for Killer Instinct!

In addition, the cartoonish look of shock the Kongs have when encountering a boss is a reference to Battletoads.

I didn’t know that!
